  • Patent number: 6288167
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to blends of two grafted rubber substrates and a matrix polymer wherein one of the grafted rubber substrates uses a core/shell rubber such as a styrene/butyl acrylate rubber in order to obtain a lower contrast ratio in the blends and better colorability as well as good impact strength.

  • Patent number: 6239221
    Abstract: A polymer composition comprising a blend of (a) a grafted olefin rubber, (b) an ungrafted olefin rubber, (c) a copolymeric matrix and an optional (d) a grafted acrylate rubber is disclosed. The composition which is characterized in having a desirable balance of impact strength and low gloss is useful for molding and extrusion of articles for certain outdoor applications.

  • Patent number: 5883187
    Abstract: A polymer composition is disclosed comprising (A) a first grafted acrylate rubber substrate having an average rubber phase particle size of from about 0.05 to about 0.2 micron; (B) a second grafted acrylate rubber substrate having an average rubber phase particle size of from about 0.2 to about 2 microns; and (C) a matrix polymer wherein each of the first and second rubber substrates are grafted with (i) a vinyl aromatic monomer; (ii) an unsaturated nitrile monomer; and (iii) optionally a compatible polymerizable comonomer based on the total weight of the grafted rubber substrate wherein at least one of the acrylate rubber substrates is a copolymer of from 83 to 98 percent by weight of an acrylate monomer and from 17 to 2 weight percent of an unsaturated nitrile monomer based on the total weight of the acrylate nitrile monomer copolymer rubber; and wherein the composition has an Izod impact value of at least 80 Joules/meter when tested at 23.degree. C. according to ASTM D-256 using a test specimen of 6.35 cm.
